SUMMARY:What Does a Solidarity Economy Approach to Housing Look Like?
DESCRIPTION:Today\, affordable quality housing is often out of reach. Standard remedies tend to focus on tweaking regulations\, zoning\, and public subsidies. But what if systemic shifts are needed? That is a central claim of solidarity economy advocates.  \n\n\n\nIn this 90-minute Shelterforce webinar\, panelists will outline what a solidarity economy is and what its principles are and suggest ways these principles might be applied more broadly.
